Ex-LMS Coronation Class 8P 4-6-2 No 46240 'City of Coventry' heads another Type 3 Freight service through Nuneaton station on 13th August 1964. These magnificent locomotives, arguably the most powerful class of passenger locomotives built in the country, were in their final months of service, No 46240 being withdrawn in October, and as such were relegated to less important workings.
